2018 Grocery Card Fundraising – Program Info

The shopping you already do every day, at 15+ stores you already love, can help our Grade 7 kids to their special trip this year! We’re excited to introduce a new program that will not cost you one penny while helping raise funds for our Senior Trip Fund!

The Senior Trip committee purchases shopping (gift) cards at a discount from large, well known retailers like Safeway, Choices, Save-on-Foods, and Starbucks. The committee resells the cards to you at face value and keeps the difference/discount as a fundraiser to benefit the Grade 7 trip.

Every time you shop, 3% to 7% goes to our kids!

The advantage of this program:

Costs nothingand helps raise funds for the Senior trip

Includes stores that we all shop at for everyday for items like groceries, gas and restaurants (see attached order form)

Includes stores that we will shop at for the holiday season or give out for presents.

Includes stores for a house renovation!

The cards are good across Canada and have no expiry dates

Some cards are reloadable online or in-store (our school continues receiving funds regularly from it!)

How the Program Works:

You can place a one-time order for the whole year and provide a cheque for the full amount

You can place a monthly order with post-dated cheques for the year (same items each month)

You can place an order each month for different order each time

All orders will be required by the due date noted in the order form: (please allow one week for delivery)

Cards will be delivered the following week on Thursday and Friday at 3pm at the same table where you will place the order (top of the stairs inside the school)

Our Goal this year for this program is $2500. If only 100 families spend on average $500 per month we can achieve it! (100 X $500 X 5% rebate = $2500!!)

Let’s all participate by just pre-planning our regular monthly household purchases at retailers willing to support our school. Think too of friends and family that could use the cards and help out their favourite grandson! Let’s shop until we drop!
